Slot Review: Sunken Ships

The bottom of the ocean is littered with the corpses of boats that did not make it back home as originally planned. Nowadays, tremendous advances in the fields of navigation, ship-to-shore communication, and rescue/recovery have ensured that there are not nearly as many sunken ships as before. For diving hobbyists and treasure hunters alike, however, those vessels that went down before the advent of modern conveniences are full of adventure, mystery, and intrigue. The Sunken Ships online slot game captures the appeal of this activity fully, thanks to outstanding graphics, slick gameplay, and a sturdy jackpot that will make you feel like the guy who found the Atocha!

Sunken Ships is a three-reel, four-payline slot machine title from the Vegas Technology software firm. If you are brave enough, you can bet forty dollars a spin (max coin size of four times the highest coin value of ten dollars) for a shot at the twenty thousand dollar jackpot!

Treasure chests, anchors, and tri-colored seashells share space on the reels with lucky number seven icons and BAR logos. The shells are nonpaying symbols, but we always like it when a game designer elects to use appropriately themed images rather than letters and numbers to fill empty reel space! The background of this game is the wavy image of a shipwreck, looking like it was taken with an underwater lens on a camera, keeping with the solid theming. All in all, Sunken Ships provides a solid playing experience and an all-over good time.
